Primordial Era: The Ten Deadly Formations are Broken, Shen Gongbao Asks Me to Come Out of the Mounta

Thinking of this, Zhunti and Jieyin exchanged glances, and a chill instinctively rose in their hearts.

The decline of the Dao and the rise of the Demonic are the natural order of things. The fact that the Demonic Path can make even the Dao Ancestor so wary must mean that it has its own unique strengths. The Buddhist sect alone cannot withstand it.

"Our Buddhist community cannot withstand this!"

It's nothing more than pushing Buddhism to the forefront and making Buddhism take the lead.

At that time, the Taoist Ancestor will arrange for the three sects of Xuanmen to mediate, which will not only limit the dominance of Buddhism, but also balance the declining fortune of Xuanmen.

In this way, the Dao Ancestor eliminated the cause and effect, and the Xuanmen was able to safely pass through the demonic tribulation!

And Zhao Gongming is probably the leader of the Xuanmen chosen by the Dao Ancestor to deal with the demonic calamity!

In that case, everything makes sense.

Zhunti's series of words left the entire Holy City dumbfounded.

What a mess!

The demonic path, the mystical sect, and Zhao Gongming's affairs were all intertwined with the rise of Buddhism.

Does the flourishing of Buddhism necessarily require so many twists and turns?

Thinking of Zhao Gongming's actions against Buddhism, Zhunti Jieyin felt an urge to roar in anger.

Why Zhao Gongming?

Why Zhao Gongming?

Couldn't it be Haotian?

If it were Haotian, given his temperament, the Buddhist sect could easily control him.

But if it were Zhao Gongming instead, that would be a real problem.

Looking across the entire primordial world, below the level of a sage, the only one who could make them suffer is the Ziwei Emperor!

But on second thought, it seems that it wasn't the two saints who were suffering.

Needless to say, the Supreme One was stripped of his position as leader of the Human Sect, and even the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda in his possession was given away.

Under the radiance of the Purple Star Emperor, the entire Chan Sect had completely lost its presence in the Three Realms.

Even the Jie Sect branch founded by Zhao Gongming, which sought his advice, had a far greater presence in the Three Realms than the Chan Sect.

Thinking of this, Zhunti and Jieyin exchanged a glance and suddenly felt less uncomfortable.

Anyway, they're not the only ones who's suffering.

To be honest, the Supreme Lord and the Primordial Heavenly Venerable were probably in even more pain than they were.

Thinking of Taishang's current situation, Zhunti Jieyin felt much more relaxed.

Better to die than to die, my fellow Daoist!

If there are people who are even more upset than me, then I can rest easy.

....................

Meanwhile, Zhunti and Jieyin were comforting each other in the Chaotic Starry Sky Dojo.

In the Three Realms, with Zhao Gongming in seclusion for cultivation, the two Western Saints, trapped in the chaotic starry sky, also suddenly became calm.

Before you know it, a whole era has passed in the blink of an eye.

"call!"

In the center of the Ziwei Huan, Zhao Gongming slowly opened his eyes, the glint of light in his eyes gradually fading away. Centered on him, a vast and mighty river of time had completely solidified.

Time, which was originally invisible, seemed to materialize at this moment, sometimes stopping, sometimes accelerating, and sometimes reversing as it approached Zhao Gongming.

At this moment, in a space with a time flow rate ten thousand times faster, he cultivated for a full ten thousand eons, and in one go, he comprehended the Great Dao of Time to perfection.

That's normal.

Comprehending the Great Dao is like climbing a mountain; the further you go, the more astonishing the difficulty becomes.

Even a single percentage point between 99% and 100% can be thousands or even tens of thousands of times more difficult than the previous 99%!

Even with Zhao Gongming's current background and aptitude, and the amplification from the Dao-enlightening treasure, it still cost him tens of thousands of yuan to comprehend a single Great Dao. This illustrates just how difficult it is.

"No wonder that in the primordial world, since Pangu created the world, apart from Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Yangmei Daxian, there have been no other Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian!"

Even Hongjun Daozu and Yangmei Daxian seem to be the origins of chaotic gods and demons!

Even merely comprehending a single Great Dao to perfection is difficult enough; to attain the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, one must integrate the Great Dao into oneself…”

Zhao Gongming clicked his tongue in amazement. The Great Dao is the highest, and to comprehend it perfectly is already an extremely difficult thing.

To try to integrate the Great Dao into oneself is an extremely dangerous act. One wrong move could lead to being assimilated by the Great Dao and utterly perishing.

Merging oneself with the Dao may seem like just a step, but it contains immense danger.

One must temper one's own character and reach a higher level before one can go all out and attain the realm of the Primordial Golden Immortal.

"The Quasi-Saint Perfection level is already considered a top-tier powerhouse in the Three Realms, which is more than enough!"

"It's better to proceed slowly than hastily. Wait until your own mind is refined and perfected before pressing on with all your might, merging with the Dao, and attaining the status of a Primordial Golden Immortal!"

Zhao Gongming possessed a clear and discerning mind. With a thought, a small pagoda emanating from the primordial energy of Xuanhuang was created.

At this point, he had already attained the perfect state of Quasi-Saint, and was able to sever his third set of Three Corpses. Such a treasure of acquired merit was naturally the perfect vessel for entrusting his own Three Corpses.

hum!

As Zhao Gongming focused his mind, he saw the Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda suddenly radiate boundless golden light of merit.

Soon, a Taoist priest dressed in a dark yellow robe, with the Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda above his head, materialized.

Soon, a Taoist priest dressed in a dark yellow robe, with the Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda above his head, materialized.

He bowed and greeted Zhao Gongming, saying, "Xuanhuang Tianzun greets this Venerable One!"

"Starting today, you will travel to Beiju Luzhou to oversee the training grounds and seek guidance from the sect leader!"

Zhao Gongming spoke up, saying that the three corpses that were severed by the supreme treasure had also made Xuanhuang Tianzun's strength reach the level of a perfect Quasi-Saint, which was already at the top level in the Three Realms.

"good!"

With the Xuanhuang Heavenly Venerable atop the Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda, he immediately headed towards Beiju Luzhou.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Gongming immediately sat on the Nine Dragons Incense Chariot and flew straight towards the World of Fire and Spirits. As soon as he arrived at the World of Fire and Spirits, he learned some good news.

That is the spiritual root cultivated by the Pure World Celestial Venerable and the Earthly Emperor Shennong, and it has already shown promise.

"My lord, this spiritual root is called the Fiend Qi Transformation Grass. It feeds on the fiend qi of heaven and earth, yet it can also absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, nourishing and giving back to heaven and earth..."

Upon seeing the spiritual herb that the Celestial Purification Venerable had taken out, Zhao Gongming was instinctively taken aback, and a ripple of emotion stirred within him.

Unexpectedly, his own evil corpse, in collaboration with Shennong, managed to create such a thing!

The Great Calamity of Heaven and Earth is caused by the entanglement of cause and effect among living beings, and it can only be completely eliminated by going through a Great Calamity.

However, what truly drives the evolution of the Great Calamity is the Calamity's malevolent energy in the world. Even quasi-saints below the level of a saint find it difficult to resist the erosion of this malevolent energy.

Even a person with great supernatural powers could perish if they made a single careless move and their eyes were clouded by malevolent energy.

As the calamity evolved, the malevolent energy became increasingly concentrated, further affecting the minds of cultivators. The constant killing among cultivators only intensified the malevolent energy of the calamity, making the cultivators even more affected. This vicious cycle caused the calamity to escalate more and more fiercely, like oil being poured on a raging fire, requiring an earth-shattering battle to finally end it.

But now, with this evil energy transformation herb, it can continuously devour the evil energy of the calamity in the world, thus delaying the calamity.

Most importantly, it can even absorb and release spiritual energy to replenish the energy consumed by cultivators in the world.

This was no ordinary spiritual herb. In Zhao Gongming's eyes, the value of this Bane-to-Spirit Herb was even greater than that of a supreme treasure.

Zhao Gongming seemed to have already foreseen the beginning of the farming path for the Jie Sect and the Shangqing Sect.

But before he could even rejoice, the Celestial Purifier and the Earthly Emperor Shennong gave him another surprise.
